Thanks again for the help.
I went to the locations you suggested and both of those executable files are
there. I tried clicking on the Cli.exe file and I received an error message
that it could not initialize.
When I first started having the problem with the Fn key, I spoken to Dell
support. They had me download the latest ATI drivers for my video card.
Could that have caused this problem with these 2 .exe files not to load on
startup? Also, I keep getting reminders that there is an update available
for download. It is the Netframework 2.0. For whatever reason it will not
install. Do you thinnk all of these problems are related?
Thanks

CLI.exe is part of the ATI multimedia which installs a taskbar icon for
accessing the diagnostics features. cli.exe is required by third-party
software or hardware and should not disabled.
MOM.exe is part of the Catalyst Control Center from ATI. Catalyst
Control Center does not need to run at StartUp. It can be started
manually.
Source: PC Pitstop Process Library.
Go to Start, Control Panel, Folder Options, View, Advanced
Settings and verify that the box before "Show hidden files and
folders" is checked and "Hide protected operating system files
" is unchecked. You may need to scroll down to see the second
item. You should also make certain that the box before "Hide
extensions for known file types" is not checked.
Open Windows Explorer and check for the two files.
I think you should find them in the places indicated but they may not be
there:
c:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static\MOM.EXE
C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\cli.exe

Hi Gerry.
I last heard from you on 5/27. You asked me to let you know how I was
getting on with the problem at the begining of this thread. Possibly
you're on holiday. When you have a moment, please let me know if
there may be anything else I can do to resolve this problem.
Thanks again for all of your advice.

This is an update to my last post. The 2 applications that failed to
initialize are CLI.EXE and MOM.EXE. I get these two error messages
when I reboot. I also noticed that there is a video clip that I
created with a shareware program for converting PowerPoint
prestations to DVD. It was a dismal failure and I have since
removed it. However, I can't delete the video clip it created.
Every time I try to delete I get thrown out of Windows Explorer and
I get a message to send the info to MS. I have no idea if this has
anything to do with the problems I've been having with the FN key.

taking your recommendation, I was able to remove the various Net
Framework items from my machine. I also remove skype and
reinstalled it. I have not been able to download Net Framework
item that appear on the support site for my machine. It fails. I
found a potential fix for the problem (Register the Wups2.dll file
in Windows) but that hasn't helped. I still can download that
update. Additionally, I received a couple of error messages when I
booted up today. They both were relative to not being able to
start something. Finally, the Fn key worked for about an hour after
booting up. That's longest it has worked since this problem began.
Thanks for all of you help

Read the post by Aaron. You need to uninstall 3.5 first etc.

I tried to remove Netframework 2.0 sp 2 and it won't let me. It

I tried the link and it said that it couldn't find that page.

Remove all SP2 and later Microsoft Net Framework items and then
reinstall what the Windows Update offers!

thanks for the info.
I took a look in the add/remove programs folder in control
panel and the closest file I have in there to the one you
suggest I remove is Microsoft.net Framework 3.5 SP 1. All the
other Framework references were SP 2
I was reluctant to delete anything other than what you
suggested.
